Light straw in color the 2013 Pinot Grigio from McManis Family Vineyards is a nose full of citrus scents. Lemon, Lime and Grapefruit are all present. While the wine is crisp, there is a noticeable weight to it. The flavors anticipated by the olfactory senses are abundantly delivered. The finish has a hint of mineral character.

Production NotesThe Pinot Grigio is picked fairly early in the ripening process in order to encourage citrus flavors and acid balance. The grapes are picked at night so they come to the winery cold. The grapes for the 2013 Pinot Grigio were picked between August 8 - 17 with an average Brix of 22.2 Deg. After a gentle crush, the resulting must was immediately pressed and chilled. After crushing, the must is pressed immediately and the wine is cold fermented in stainless steel until dry.
